Alliance/AFT celebrate court’s restraining order blocking DISD’s Home Rule Commission appointments

Court Ruling Temporarily Blocks Appointments to the Home Rule Commission

“The potential consequences of Home Rule on our students, our teachers and our community are too great to be sidestepping rules and playing politics. I’ve known that for some time, and it appears the court agrees.”

“This entire process has been needlessly rushed and has sacrificed teacher and community involvement and compromised our children’s educational opportunity.”

“Everyone in our community shares a sense of urgency around the need to ensure that our children receive a high-quality public education, and we know that we cannot afford to accept the status quo. The real path to genuine reform, however, must include—not shut out—our community.”
